All About Tax Determination Procedure in SAP SD


SAP uses Condition Method technique to calculate taxes (except Withholding Tax) in the
system. Tax Calculation Procedures (defined in the system) together with the Tax Codes are
used in calculating the amount of tax.
The Tax Code is the first step in the tax calculation procedure. The Tax code describes following

Tax type (Tax Type can be defined by T-code OVK1).


Amount of tax calculated / entered.
GL account for tax posting.
Calculation of additional tax.

Each country has a specific Tax Procedure defined in the standard system. A Tax calculation
procedure contains the following fields:

Steps It determine the sequence of lines within the procedure.


Condition Types Indicates how the tax calculation model will work (whether the
records are for fixed amount or percentages and whether the records can be processed
automatically.)
Reference Steps System obtains the amount/value it uses in its calculation (e.g. the
base amount).

Account/Process Keys Provide the link between the tax procedure and the GL
accounts to which tax data is to be posted. This helps in automatic tax account
assignments. To enable this automatic assignment, there is a need to define the
following:
o

Posting keys (unless there is a specific requirement, it will be sufficient


to use the GL posting keys: Debit: 40, Credit: 50).
Rules to determine on which fields the account determination is to be
based (such as the tax code or country key).

Step-1 Tax Category


Tax Category is used to group and manage similar product tax rates or service tax rates. Tax
Rates are defined for each of the tax codes. The tax rates are linked to Tax Types and are
included in the tax procedures (in this relationship, it is technically possible that a single tax
code can have multiple tax rates for various tax types.) The tax code is assigned to a Tax
Procedure, which attaches to a GL master record. A specific tax procedure is accessed whenever
that GL account is used in document processing. Step-1.1

All About Condition Exclusion Group


Background
In any normal situation there could be more than one condition type in a pricing procedure
offering a discount to a customer. Should the discounts be automatically determined, there is the
risk that the customer will receive all the relevant discounts and thus purchase the product for a
lower price than he should.
By using condition exclusion groups you can ensure that the customer does not receive all the
discounts, but instead only receives the best of the available discount condition types.

K007 gets deactivated when user enters value for condition .

Accounting Key
A condition type writes its value to a key established in the configuration outside the pricing procedure.
That key is called the Account Key, which is a table entry that tells the pricing procedure where to copy
calculated condition values.

the system can post freight charges (generated by the freight pricing condition) to the relevant freight
revenue account.

Guide to Credit Management in SAP


Credit Management is a process in which Company sells a product / service to customers on
credit basis. The company collects payments from customer at a later time , after sale of product.
The amount of credit fixed by a company for a customer is called credit limit. The customer
can Purchase the product from a company within the credit limit, and when the credit limit is
crossed, order is blocked by the system.
Example- Consider a Company creates a credit limit for Customer of 200,000. Customer can
purchase the product from the company on credit till the credit limit 200,000 is
reached.Customer gives an Order # 1 of amount 100000. Again Customer gives an Order # 2 of
the amount 1,50000. Now, the total open order crosses credit limit of a customer.Order 2 is
blocked by the system due to credit limit reached.

Here customer ordered a total of Rs. 2,50,000,while a customer credit limit is Rs. 2,00,000.Here
order 2 is over to the credit limit of a customer. So the order 2 will be blocked by the
system.Credit limit can be different for each customer .
Types of credit checks:
1. Simple credit check: Simple Credit Check = Value of all Open Items + Value of the
Current Sales Order. Note: Open Items are invoices for which company has not received
payment.
2. Automatic Credit check - Automatic credit check allows you to evaluate a transaction
based on the credit rating of the customer, and ensures appropriate further processing of the
transaction document. The credit limit check starts either automatically when you save a
document or by selecting Check Credit. Automatic credit checks are of 2 types1. Static Credit Check (Check for credit limit against total value of open sales order + open
delivery not invoiced + billing value of open billing document not passed at accounting).

2. Dynamic Credit Check (Check for credit limit against open sales order not yet delivered
+ open delivery not invoiced + billing value of open billing document not passed at
accounting + passed but not paid bill amount).
Step-1: Set Credit Check
1. Enter T-code OVA8 in command field.
